Elon Musk Fired Supercharger Chief Rebecca Tinucci And Her Entire Team After She Refused To Lay Off More Workers Than Planned: Report
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:TSLA) Elon Musk reportedly dismissed almost the entire Supercharger division of Tesla, including its head Rebecca Tinucci, after Tinucci refused to lay off workers beyond the planned numbers.
據報道，特斯拉公司（納斯達克股票代碼：TSLA）埃隆·馬斯克解散了特斯拉幾乎整個增壓器部門，包括其負責人麗貝卡·蒂努奇，此前蒂努奇拒絕在計劃人數之外裁員。
What Happened: Tinucci reportedly had a meeting with Musk to discuss the future of the charging network. This meeting was subsequent to a previous round of layoffs, where Tinucci had reduced the staff by 15% to 20%. However, Musk was not satisfied with the presentation and demanded additional layoffs. When Tinucci opposed it, arguing that it would negatively impact the business fundamentals, Musk reacted by terminating her and the entire 500-member team, a Reuters report revealed on Wednesday.
發生了什麼：據報道，蒂努奇與馬斯克會面，討論充電網絡的未來。這次會議是在前一輪裁員之後舉行的，蒂努奇裁員了15％至20％。但是，馬斯克對演講不滿意，並要求進一步裁員。路透社週三的一份報告顯示，當蒂努奇反對時，認爲這將對業務基本面產生負面影響，馬斯克的反應是解僱了她和整個由500名成員組成的團隊。
At the time of publishing, Tesla had yet to respond to the queries sent by Benzinga.
在發佈之時，特斯拉尚未回應本辛加發出的詢問。
This abrupt exit has caused disruption in a network that was considered a significant Tesla achievement and a key driver of its EV sales. Tesla Superchargers account for more than 60% of U.S. high-speed charging ports, and the company has been the largest beneficiary of $5 billion in federal funding for new chargers.
這次突然退出導致網絡中斷，該網絡被認爲是特斯拉的一項重大成就，也是其電動汽車銷售的關鍵驅動力。特斯拉增壓器佔美國高速充電端口的60％以上，該公司一直是聯邦政府爲新充電器提供的50億美元資金的最大受益者。
According to two former employees, the energy team assigned to take over the management of the charging network was already overwhelmed with its workload.
據兩名前僱員稱，被指派接管充電網絡管理的能源團隊的工作量已經不堪重負。
Why It Matters: Despite the layoffs, Musk announced that Tesla still plans to expand the Supercharger network, albeit at a slower pace. He also stated that Tesla would spend over $500 million to create thousands of new chargers this year. However, former Supercharger staff claimed that this budget is a significant reduction from the team's original plans for 2024.
爲何重要：儘管裁員，但馬斯克宣佈，特斯拉仍計劃擴大增壓器網絡，儘管步伐有所放緩。他還表示，特斯拉今年將花費超過5億美元製造數千個新充電器。但是，前增壓器工作人員聲稱，該預算比該團隊最初的2024年計劃大幅減少。
Tesla had started rehiring some of the laid-off Supercharger team members, including Max de Zegher, the director of charging for North America.
特斯拉已經開始重新僱用一些被解僱的增壓器團隊成員，包括北美充電總監馬克斯·德澤格。
Meanwhile, Danny Moses, a prominent investor and long-time Tesla critic, predicted a significant drop in Tesla's stock price based on the company's recent developments and future prospects.
同時，著名投資者、長期批評特斯拉的丹尼·摩西根據特斯拉的近期發展和未來前景預測，特斯拉的股價將大幅下跌。
Price Action: As of Wednesday, Tesla's stock was trading 0.47% lower at $176.71 at the time of writing this article, according to Benzinga Pro. The company's first quarter of 2024 earnings showed a revenue of $21.3 billion, missing estimates by $1.039 billion.
價格走勢：根據Benzinga Pro的數據，截至週三，特斯拉的股票在撰寫本文時下跌0.47％，至176.71美元。該公司2024年第一季度的收益顯示收入爲213億美元，比預期低10.39億美元。
